The correct answer is Option (D). The subtraction property of equality asserts that whatever is subtracted from one side of an equation must also be subtracted from the other side. In the instance where x + 2 = 2, applying this property leads to: x + 2 - 2 = 2 - 2, simplifying to x = 0. However, the provided question displays the addition property of equality utilized in step 2, indicating that the subtraction property was not applied there. Consequently, Option (D) is the correct response.
We can formulate the trajectory of the parabola using the vertex form equation: y = a (x – h)^2 + k. The coordinates for the vertex are at h and k, representing the peak height, thus h = 250 and k = 120. Consequently, the equation becomes y = a (x – 250)^2 + 120. At the starting point where x = 0 and y = 0, we find a: 0 = a (0 – 250)^2 + 120, which simplifies to 0 = a (62,500) + 120, leading to a = -0.00192. The complete equation is y = -0.00192 (x – 250)^2 + 120. To determine y when x = 400, we substitute: y = -0.00192 (400 - 250)^2 + 120, yielding y = 76.8 ft. Hence, the ball clears the tree by 76.8 ft – 60 ft = 16.8 ft.
Answer: (3y - 5) • (2y - 3)
Step-by-step explanation: 6y2 - 10y - 9y - 15
2.1 Factoring 6y2-19y+15
